Scope and Content

Waxed paper negative showing buildings in a landscape, by unknown photographer. In the foreground there are the remains of a compound of rudimentary dwellings, possibly built of mud bricks, that are in a semi-derelict condition. In the background is an impressive large white building, possibly inhabited, with Arabic style arcading at first floor level and a perimeter wall. This may be a study contrasting different styles of buildings.

Symbol or letter in ink bottom left corner on sensitised side (looking at negative image).
